Hello,
I was always encountering the same problems a few days ago.
(CRC error,length error,etc) I have solved these problems for
myself. But I don't know if it can help you.
I built the arm linux cross toolchain myself on an i686
(Pentium III 667) and Red Hat 6.2 (Note:with kernel 2.2.14-5)
host. Then I found this 2.2.14-5 kernel doesn't surport cramfs,
so I built a new 2.4.0 kernel with cramfs surported for my
host,but I didn't rebuilt the arm linux cross toolchain when
running 2.4.0 kernel. So I always encounter these problems
when I build the kernel for assabet while running 2.4.0 kernel
on my host. And I solved these problems by booting 2.2.14-5
kernel on my host.
Perhaps you don't use Red Hat 6.2 host.
Perhaps you don't have two different kernel running
on your host.
Perhaps my thought is absurd.
Any way, it solve my problem.
Hope this can help you!
Regards
Fengcai
